Breakfast Leftover chicken soba stir fry from last night with an egg on top, nearly 500 calories. The egg probably wasn't strictly necessary but this meal was just asking for one. Lunch Lamb meatballs, baby spinach, cilantro, tahini and sour cream on a flour tortilla, about 270 calories. I only had half the usual serving... Continue Reading →

GERD Elimination Diet – Day 54
I made some apple flax muffins today for the beginning of my sugar reintroduction. They were pretty good but I think the recipe author and I have different ideas of how big a medium apple is. I should have just stopped dicing after the first one because I think I had way too much. I... Continue Reading →

Breakfast A cheese and chive biscuit, an egg and asparagus, about 320 calories. I have a big bag of asparagus I'm trying to use up. Lunch Another biscuit and egg, this time with broccoli and cashews, about 500 calories. Yes, this is a weird meal. I didn't plan properly to have any kind of meat... Continue Reading →

GERD Elimination Diet – Day 49
Breakfast An egg on a cheddar and chive biscuits with an apricot, about 300 calories. I always get excited when I see apricots at the grocery store since I love them, but they only ever seem to be good for a few weeks. I only got two since I wasn't sure how they were and... Continue Reading →
GERD Elimination Diet – Day 48
Now that I can eat the things savory baked goods are made from, I can start baking again! Sugar will be reintroduced in about a week so then I'll be able to bake most things. Just no chocolate. Additionally, I was lucky enough to find flour at the grocery store today, and it was even... Continue Reading →

Breakfast Beef meatballs, baby spinach mix and sour cream on a flour tortilla, about 350 calories. Lunch I made a dip type thing with tahini, sour cream and fresh herbs. It was fine but it would have been better with lemon. I ate it with my remaining meatballs and carrot and celery sticks. This was... Continue Reading →
GERD Elimination Diet – Day 46
Breakfast Ground beef, egg, cheese, sour cream and baby spinach mix on a homemade burger bun. About 750 calories. Yeah, this was too much. I underestimated how many calories would be in the burger and how filling it would be. I should have at least left out the egg. Lunch I was not really hungry... Continue Reading →
